PLASTER STUDIO...

WHOO HOO!!!

i received my new book in the mail...and am taking their class in june...but couldn't wait another second to give something a try.



the book is so well done, clear, concise and of course...artisically gorgeous... "judy and stephanie" STYLE!



i went for the the caulking excercise judy wrote up...



i used an old book cover, spread on the caulk, inscripted my outlines for a face and some textures, having no idea how this would turn out. let it dry and went for my paints...



it was such a surprise all around...the caulking took the painting so BEAUTIFULLY, that i wanted to paint on it forever, it was marvelous! i actually liked my surprise 'TURN OUT', it was almost like painting backwards or with your eyes shut tight...extremely freeing and fun!



i shall attempt more with time :))!



right next door in one of the photos you can catch a glimpse of a little painted plaster gauze...it ain't over yet for experimentation!!!






these are both the same painting...lighting a little different...maybe so you can see the textures and inscriptions...



GO PAINTING!!! XOXO

    I love this picture! Oh, I wish I could draw and paint like you! WOW! I always was yearning for that - but there is no talent in me - nothing at all! Oh well... I enjoy yours! :-) And I am glad you share - thank you - here get a hug!

    i was wondering if i should order this book - think i have to now - your girl has a dreamy look on her face - she looks as if she has a question she wants to ask

    i'm so glad to have been a help in deciding ladies...i don't think you'd be one bit disappointed if you like to do any of the plaster, caulking or wax excercises! they are so clear in directions (something i don't do well with, ordinarily)! and nothing is over the top expensive! not to mention how special these women are! xoxo THE VERY BEST OF LUCK TO ALL OF YOU!
